During their series with the Athletics, news came out that the Red Sox had released a player from their organization.
MLB.com wrote (on August 9): “Salem RidgeYaks released SS Ilan Fernandez.”
Fernandez had been with the organization since 2024 (when he was 17).
He is batting .235 with 47 hits, four home runs, 35 RBIs, 32 runs and seven stolen bases in 68 Single-A games this year.
Brendan Campbell of Blogging the Red Sox wrote: “Surprised to see that the Red Sox released minor league infielder Ilan Fernandez, who I thought was having a solid first season at Low-A Salem.”
It will be interesting to see if someone picks up Fernandez before the end of the 2026 baseball season.
Hunter Noll of Beyond the Monster wrote (on July 22): “Ilan Fernandez two-run home run and he gives us a five-star bat flip. The Boston Red Sox prospect has four home runs and 32 RBI in Single-A this season.”
